πŸ€— + πŸ“š dbmdz DistilBERT model

In this repository the MDZ Digital Library team (dbmdz) at the Bavarian State Library open sources a German Europeana DistilBERT model πŸŽ‰

German Europeana DistilBERT

We use the open source Europeana newspapers that were provided by The European Library. The final training corpus has a size of 51GB and consists of 8,035,986,369 tokens.

Detailed information about the data and pretraining steps can be found in this repository.

Usage

With Transformers >= 4.3 our German Europeana DistilBERT model can be loaded like:

from transformers import AutoModel, AutoTokenizer

model_name = "dbmdz/distilbert-base-german-europeana-cased"

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained(model_name)

Huggingface model hub

All other German Europeana models are available on the Huggingface model hub.
